Gold Skirt, Black Lace Tee

I love the way a midi-pleated skirt looks. It's very feminine and classic, and there are a ton of ways to make it look very modern. Since I'm not super tall, I also try to keep in mind what shoes I'm wearing. Which is why pairing it with these sandal heels (yes, even in the winter) is my favorite option. To be totally honest, I will probably only wear this for holiday parties, and don't plan on being outside longer than it would take me to get from my car to back inside.

I love to wear this skirt with this lace crop top. Since it's a gold, sparkly skirt, why not get super dressed up in it? I definitely feel fancy! :) To finish off my look, I've added this statement necklace and dangle earring (I know, not something I do very often!).

Such a cute outfit to bring in the New Year! I hope you and yours have a happy and safe New Year!

Green Velvet Dress

I'm so excited velvet started coming back last year! I remember all the velvet dresses I wore as a little girl, and I totally miss that. They were so soft, and 100% '90s lol. Last year, I found this dress and I definitely squealed a tiny bit when I found it.

Since it's a shift dress, there really isn't any shape to it. I debated wearing a belt with it, and maybe I will in the future. But for today, since the dress doesn't have sleeves, I decided to wear this tweed cropped jacket.

Then I added these black booties and a statement necklace to finish off the look! So festive and fun!
